Writer folks, check out this post:

Rachelle Gardner, Literary Agent: Fiction Writing: Craft and Story

She says:

I get the feeling many people are so saturated with media (books, TV, movies) that they are writing not from life but from their perception of life as shown in media. They’re writing stories I’ve seen and heard a hundred times before.

I love this post. I love it very much.

Rachelle is talking about stories with a heart.

Stories that speak to your soul.

Stories that bypass the surface and talk about things the way they are.

Stories that are honest.

That is exactly what I read.

And that’s exactly what I want to write, and I do write.

What an inspirational post!

Wine Like a Kiss, Part II

August 02, 2009 Author: The Admin Category: Awesomesauce, Characterization  0 Comments

This wine is exquisite. A blended red from Washington, the wine not so much swirls in your mouth, but french kisses the tongue. A heady wine rich with flavor, it reminds you of a woman who neither is teasing nor coy before embracing you for a night of sensuous lovemaking. It is the wine’s purpose. That is all she does. And after she is gone, the fruity taste on the lips remain, beckoning for more.
